DAVIDSON, N.C. – A late second half goal by Ky Hau-Golden lifted Dayton to a 1-0 victory over the Davidson College women's soccer team Saturday evening at Alumni Stadium.
The Wildcats drop to 5-8-2 on the season and 1-5-1 in league action while the Flyers climb to 6-6-3 overall (3-1-3 in the A-10).
After enduring early pressure from Dayton, the Wildcats relied on strong defensive play in the first half. Goalkeeper Grace Stair anchored Davidson's defense, making four saves in the opening 45 minutes as the Flyers fired 11 shots and earned 11 corner kicks.
Davidson looked to generate momentum early in the second period, with Reese Montgomery taking the Wildcats' lone shot of the match in the 52nd minute. Dayton continued to press, tallying another 11 shots and forcing three additional corners in the half.
The Flyers eventually broke through in the 89th minute when Bre Mendoza set up Hau-Golden, who converted the game-winning goal. The Wildcats were unable to create a final chance in the closing minute. Stair finished with five saves for the 'Cats, while Kasey Cannistraro recorded the clean sheet for Dayton.
